Don’t drink tap water in Hankey

There’s been a breakdown in the canal system that supplies Hankey with water. The municipality is now pumping water from the river to Hankey but this water is not safe for drinking.

“Please boil the water first before drinking it. The problem will be sorted out by next week and we will tell residents when the drinking water will be safe again” said Laura-Leigh Randall, spokesperson from the Kouga Municipality.
